5 Requirements for Long Range Operations
5.1 LR ATSVR Architecture
An LR ATSVR consists of various equipment elements that communicate and interact through communication
network interfaces in accordance with standard procedures and protocols to facilitate the recovery of a stolen
vehicle. These processes may involve a human operator.
ATSVR elements include an OBE installed in the vehicle, a range of Detecting Equipment and one or more
SOC’s. One or more supporting communications network interfaces facilitates the interactions that support the
various ATSVR functions. The ATSVR location function may also include one or more supporting Position
Reference Sources.
5.2 The LR ATSVR Process
The process begins with the theft of the vehicle. Following theft or suspected theft, the first possible function
is to indicate that the theft has occurred. Following this, the status of the target vehicle, i.e., whether the target
vehicle has been stolen or not, shall be confirmed by the user or by other appropriate personnel; this status
shall then be acknowledged by an LEA. This then becomes a Registered Stolen Vehicle.
The vehicle should then be located by the ATSVR, and if moving, tracked or homed onto by the system in
order to facilitate LEA or ATSVR service personnel to close range with the target vehicle. By closing range
with the target vehicle, they will more easily be able to recognise the vehicle. Once recognised, the target
vehicle shall be accurately discriminated as the target vehicle from other surrounding vehicles.
This process facilitates the selection of the target vehicle for closer examination by LEA or ATSVR personnel
in order to confirm the identity of the target vehicle as the stolen vehicle. The process of establishing identity
may require an additional query and response through ATSVR databases.
This process can, under controlled circumstances, be assisted by the degradation of the capabilities of the
target vehicle.
5.3 The LR ATSVR Functions
There are three basic ATSVR functions:
a) Detection of a Registered Stolen Vehicle;
b) Location of a Registered Stolen Vehicle;
c) Identification of a Registered Stolen Vehicle.
5.3.1 LR Detection Function
This function provides the automatic or semi-automatic detection of the location of a Registered Stolen
Vehicle. This may be done by Signalling or by Consulting.
Detection by Signalling is when the OBE has been activated by a signal from an external source. This
activation may come from a mobile or stationary source, which may be local to the vehicle (Short Range) or at
a distance from the vehicle (Long Range).  Once activated, the OBE transmits a signal that can be picked up
by ATSVR Detection Equipment located either locally or at a distance from the vehicle. The transmitted signal
may contain other relevant information.
Detection by Consulting is when an external item of DE interrogates the OBE and the OBE responds by
transmitting data to the DE. The DE then compares the received data with a database of Registered Stolen
Vehicles; a data match confirms that a Registered Stolen vehicle is present and further action can take place.

5.3.2 LR Location Function
Once the Registered Stolen vehicle has been detected the location can be established by one of the following
functions:
 location by using direct geographic co-ordinates;
 location by using indirect geographical co-ordinates; or
 location by using homing techniques.
Location by direct or indirect geographic co-ordinates is the process that establishes the general or precise
location of the vehicle at a given point in time. This allows entitled persons to carry out their defined tasks.
Homing (also known as Tracing or Relative Positioning) is the process that periodically updates the range and
direction of the detected vehicle from an intercepting vehicle over a period of time. Thus allowing entitled
personnel to approach or intercept the detected vehicle without the necessary use of landmarks or absolute
geographic references.
Tracking is the process that periodically updates location and other information on the detected vehicle over a
period of time and allows entitled personnel to monitor, approach or intercept the detected vehicle.
5.3.3 LR Identification Function
This function allows the unequivocal identification of a vehicle as being the Registered Stolen Vehicle. This
may be by means of a secure process that allows the unique vehicle data to be read. e.g. VIN, registration
number, and other data, e.g. theft status, model, colour and if relevant, position.
Discrimination is the process that enables entitled personnel to unambiguously differentiate the detected
vehicle from other surrounding vehicles.
Recognition is the process that enables entitled personnel to correctly select the detected vehicle through
visual observation based on knowledge of the vehicle particulars such as make, model, colour and other
specific observable features.
Indirect Identification results from data coming from a central or remote data bank
